The Arts Condominium is a seven-story historic conversion in Center City Philadelphia, originally built in 1900 and adapted into primarily studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom condominium homes. Architecturally the property preserves early 20th-century character—high ceilings, original tile and decorative trim—while common areas display period glamour, most notably a restored 1920s ballroom with marble and chandelier details. Interior unit finishes vary from original Sylvania-era tile and restored wood trim to updated laminate or hardwood floors, efficient kitchenettes, walk-in closets, recessed lighting, and a mix of tub/shower and walk-in shower bath configurations; many units retain built-ins, crown moldings, and other historic details. Shared building facilities include a staffed 24/7 lobby with secured entry and CCTV, a professionally designed fitness center, business/lounge spaces, on-site laundry, community room, bike storage, and lobby Wi-Fi; select services and utilities (heat, electric, water, and internet) are commonly included in condominium fees. Exterior features support urban living with sidewalks, street lighting, and hardscaped frontage; limited additional storage and bicycle parking are available. The building maintains pet-friendly policies with weight limits and offers accessible transit links and walkable access to theaters, restaurants, parks, and cultural institutions around the Avenue of the Arts and Washington Square West.
